I think that the hotel that the Pratt's had is still used as a restaurant, and located on Main Street (on the west side of the lake). I might be wrong about that being their hotel, but I think a descendant told me that it was the same building. Not sure of the most current name of the restaurant. It was called O'Traina's a few years ago. It changed names, but I don't remember the current name.

I know my Pratt family had run a hotel in Wauconda but I don't know much about it. I just found the mention in the Barrington Review of one of my Pratt family spending the week there....am very curious as I never knew this person had any children.Thanks a bunch. priscilla ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ILLAKE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message --------------------------------- Now that's room service!
